Ghrelin及其生物学功能 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Ghrelin是1999年发现的一种含有28个氨基酸残基的内分泌激素,主要由胃黏膜的一种内分泌细胞分泌,也分布于其他许多组织中,如垂体、下丘脑和胰腺等,是一种脑肠肽。Ghrelin与其特异性受体结合后,会产生一系列生物学效应,如刺激垂体前叶释放生长激素,增加采食,维持能量平衡,保护胃黏膜,促进胃酸分泌和胃肠运动等。本文对Ghrelin的结构、分布及其生物学功能进行了简要综述,以期为今后的研究提供相关的基础资料。 相似文献

Although the release of growth hormone (GH) is known to be regulated mainly by GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) and somatostatin (SRIF) secreted from the hypothalamus, ghrelin also may be involved in GH release during juvenile period. We have examined plasma concentrations of acylated ghrelin, desacyl ghrelin, and GH in juvenile beagle dogs. Plasma acylated and desacyl ghrelin levels changed through aging; however, there was no closely correlation between ghrelin, body weight and circulating GH levels during juvenile period. The increase in body weight was essentially linear until 8 months of age, whereas plasma GH concentrations exhibited bimodal peaks for the meanwhile. The results suggest that ghrelin may not play internal cueing in GH secretion in juvenile beagle dogs. 相似文献

Release of growth hormone (GH) is known to be regulated mainly by GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) and somatostatin (SRIF) secreted from the hypothalamus. A novel peripheral release-regulating hormone, ghrelin, was recently identified. In this study, differences of the GH secretory response to ghrelin and GHRH in growing and lactating dairy cattle were investigated and an alteration of plasma ghrelin levels was observed. The same amounts of ghrelin and GHRH (0.3 nmol/kg) were intravenously injected to suckling and weanling calves, early and mid-lactating cows and non-lactating cows. Plasma ghrelin levels were also determined in dairy cattle in various physiological conditions. The peak values of ghrelin-induced GH secretion were increased in early lactating cows compared to those in non-lactating cows. The relative responsiveness of GH secretion to ghrelin was also increased compared with that to GHRH in early lactating cows. GH secretory responses to GHRH were blunted in mature cows with and without lactation. Conversely, GHRH-induced GH secretory response was greater than that to ghrelin in calves, and also greater in calves than in mature cows. Plasma ghrelin concentrations were elevated in early lactating cows compared to those in non-lactating cows. Plasma GH concentrations were higher in suckling calves and early lactating cows compared with those in non-lactating cows. These results suggest that GHRH is an effective inducer of GH release in growing calves, and that the relative importance of ghrelin in contributing to the rise in plasma GH increases in early lactating cows. 相似文献

奶牛循环系统中高浓度前列腺素F_(2α)(PGF_(2α))是导致早期胚胎死亡的主要原因之一,而早期胚胎死亡又是影响奶牛繁殖力降低的主要因素。最近,牛胚胎中PGF_(2α)受体的发现和定位及PGF_(2α)受体抑制剂降低PGF_(2α)对胚胎发育抑制作用等。研究结果表明,PGF_(2α)受体抑制剂在奶牛繁殖中具有广阔的应用前景。Ghrelin作用在奶牛生殖过程的机理尚不完全清楚,但青年奶牛生殖器官、卵母细胞和早期胚胎中均能检测到Ghrelin、GHSR-1a mRNA及其表达蛋白等。一系列研究结果预示,Ghrelin在奶牛生殖过程中可能作为重要的代谢信号直接参加调控生殖激素的分泌、胚胎发育、生殖道营养物质的运输和生殖道功能的维持等生理过程。 相似文献

Ghrelin, a novel 28-amino acid peptide with an n-octanoyl modification at Ser3, has been isolated from rat and human stomach as an endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor. Here, we purified feline ghrelin and examined its possible physiological role in cats. The major active form of feline ghrelin is a 28-amino acid peptide octanoylated (C8:0) at Ser3; except for one amino acid residue replacement, this structure is identical to those of rat and human ghrelins. However, much structural divergence in peptide length and fatty acid modification was observed in feline ghrelin: peptides consisting of 27 or 26 amino acids lacking Gln14 and/or Arg28 were found, and the third serine residue was modified by octanoic acid (C8:0), decanoic acid (10:0), or unsaturated fatty acids (C8:1, C10:1 and C10:2). In agreement with the structural divergence, two kinds of cDNA with different lengths were isolated. Administration of synthetic rat ghrelin increased plasma growth hormone levels in cats, with a potency similar to that in rat or human. Plasma levels of ghrelin in cats increased approximately 2.5-fold after fasting. The present study indicates the existence of structural divergence in feline ghrelin and suggests that, as in other animals, ghrelin may play important roles in GH release and feeding in cats. 相似文献

Ghrelin, an orexigenic hormone, is the endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR). Obestatin is produced from the same precursor peptide as ghrelin, and although obestatin was initially thought to promote actions opposite to those of ghrelin, many studies have failed to confirm this hypothesis. In the current study, multiparous cows were continuously infused with ghrelin (n = 10) or obestatin (n = 10) for 8 wk and compared to an untreated group (n = 10) to examine the effects of these hormones on somatotropic and liporegulatory gene expression. The expression of key genes was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Growth hormone secretagogue receptor mRNA expression was altered in ghrelin- and obestatin-infused cows in a similar manner, as expression was increased at 4 wk, however it had decreased by 8 wk. Obestatin-infused cows presented with a significant decrease in the expression of ATP-binding cassette A1 (ABCA1) in adipose tissue, suggesting changes in cholesterol transport. Liver insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding protein-3 mRNA displayed a week-by-treatment interaction, as expression was increased in control and obestatin-infused cows; however, expression decreased in ghrelin-infused cows. Adipose expression of hormone sensitive lipase (LIPE) mRNA was not altered by treatment or time, suggesting hormone infusion is not initiating lipolysis. The expression of lipogenic genes in adipose tissue increased with time in all groups, consistent with the general lactational profile of lipogenesis in dairy cows. These data indicate that continuous infusion of ghrelin or obestatin does not alter the expression of key somatotropic or liporegulatory genes in the lactating dairy cow, although obestatin infusion may alter cholesterol transport. 相似文献

Ghrelin is a peptide hormone that is mainly produced by the stomach. The kidney is a
major source of local ghrelin, and maintaining body fluid balance is considered a critical
role of renal ghrelin. However, there are no reports on renal ghrelin in small animal
medicine. The present study investigated the intrarenal localization of and change in
ghrelin expression in dogs with immune complex-mediated glomerulonephritis (ICGN). Ghrelin
immunoreactivity (IR) was observed in the distal tubules of normal kidneys. Ghrelin IR was
weak in ICGN kidneys, and the quantitative ghrelin IR score was significantly lower in
ICGN kidneys than in normal kidneys. In cases of ICGN, plasma creatinine concentrations
showed a positive correlation with the ghrelin IR score. 相似文献

Ghrelin is a 28 amino-acid multi-functional peptide hormone, which was identified as a natural ligand of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R). Pituitary growth hormone-releasing activity in both animals and humans has been well documented. It has various biological functions, including regulation of appetite and body weight, control of energy homeostasis, modulation of cardiovascular and gastrointestinal system and anti-inflammatory effect. However, both ghrelin and its receptor (GHS-R) are widely distributed in various tumors, which strongly implies their role in neoplastic cell growth trough autocrine/paracrine mechanism. Multiple studies have demonstrated the role of ghrelin in cancer cells proliferation, differentiation, invasiveness and apoptosis inhibition. The ghrelin axis is more complex than it was originally thought and consist of several compounds that might interact with each other and affect ghrelin activities. Here, we provide an overview of the ghrelin and its receptor role in tumor progression. 相似文献

Gastric-derived peptide hormone ghrelin is known for its potent growth hormone (GH) stimulatory effects. The acyl-modification on N-terminal Ser(3) residue is reported to be important to stimulate the ghrelin receptor, GH secretagogue-receptor type1a (GHS-R1a). However, major portion of circulating ghrelin lacks in acylation, and some biological properties of des-acyl ghrelin have been reported in monogastric animals. In the present study, the responsiveness of plasma hormones and metabolites to ghrelin in steers was characterized, and role for des-acyl ghrelin in these changes was investigated. The repeated intravenous administrations of bovine ghrelin (1.0 microg/kg BW) every 2h for 8h to Holstein steers significantly increased the plasma acylated ghrelin, total ghrelin, GH, insulin and NEFA levels. The GH responses in peak values and area under the curves (AUCs) were attenuated by repeated injections of ghrelin, however, the responses of plasma total ghrelin were similar. Plasma insulin AUC decreased after fourth injection of ghrelin while plasma NEFA AUCs gradually increased by repeated injections of ghrelin. Pretreatment of des-acyl ghrelin (10.0 microg/kg BW) 5 min prior to the single injection of ghrelin (1.0 microg/kg BW) did not affect the ghrelin-induced hormonal changes. Moreover, the responses of plasma GH to bovine and porcine ghrelin, which differ in C-terminal amino acid residues, were similar in calves. These data show that (1) GH release was attenuated by repeated administration of ghrelin, (2) ghrelin regulates glucose and fatty acid metabolism probably via different pathway, and (3) des-acyl ghrelin is unlikely the antagonist for ghrelin to induce endocrine effects in Holstein steers. 相似文献
